It's the Lee and Paul take over episode you've been waiting for!
Kinda...
Join Lee, Producer Paul and Kyle as they go over the news from the past week.
No Man's Sky goes Pokémon with the pet update. Metro Exodus shows how powerful the little Series S really is. And is Xbox going to buy Kojima Studios? Some people think so...
Crazy Taxi is back! But not really. There a new game called Taxi Chaos which seems to be a Crazy Taxi clone... There are new games coming out, but it doesn't seem to be super exciting...
We're still wrapping our head around podcasting remotely and internationally, so these first few episodes may be rough. You have been warned!

What do you want to see from Xbox in 2021?
Join us for all our hopes, dreams, and predictions for Xbox in 2021!
We are back from our hiatus and we come bearing all the news. Like so much!
Lee tries to catch us up with what's been happening over the last 2 months. And does a stellar job of it. Much like Xbox setting a world record to project Destiny 2 onto a mountain side.
Kyle keeps things brief with the new games, focusing on the past week's releases.
In more exciting news - we have merch! How do you get this merch? You'll just have to join our Discord to find out!

How much Star Wars can we fit into a podcast about Xbox?
Listen now to find out!
Xbox Black Friday sales have begun, there's easy gamer score to be had and Xbox 360 launched 15 years ago! So much news to be had. But let's not get distracted with the news, lets focus on Star Wars! Have you heard about Star Wars? It's this new thing we're watching, and it seems fairly good. And somehow X-Files and Star Wars go together...

Two weeks with the Series X.
And we have been playing ALL the games!
Loading times don't exist, so why not start every single game you have downloadeed? That seems to the theme here... Also, we have a bingo/drinking game for you to play while you listen!
From Jedi: Fallen Order and lightsabers, to racing around in Forza, to shooting grubs in the face in Gears 5, we jump from game, to game, to game. and to game.

Introducing our newest challenge - 12 Days of Christmas!
It's not really ours. It's True Achievements. But hey, let's all jump in and have some fun!
One Week with the Xbox Series X. These are our thoughts.
Along with all the normal news you've come to expect from us. And boy, do we have news! So much news just for you. It's almost impossible to remember all this news. So, you'll just have to trust us here.
Oh, and there's also a dating game in here somewhere! Now put on your hat with goggles, and your other pair of goggles, and let's get Double Goggling!

Next Gen is officially here! Welcome to the world Xbox Series X and S!
To celebrate the launch of Next Gen, we podcast with a real-life Series X sitting on the table! And we haven't even unwrapped it yet. And then we decided to do an unboxing, live on stream. So join in on all the launch day fun.
In this episode we answer the question "Why buy an Xbox Series console?".

We're political commentators now! But not really.
We still have no idea what we're talking about.
Xbox Series will be the only consoles with full RDNA2 as confirmed by AMD. But what does this mean? We try explaining it, poorly. Xbox makes a fridge and I want one! We're getting closer to the Series X and S launch just as more countries go back into lockdown, making picking up a new console rather difficult. Apple TV+ coming to Xbox while Shadow of Morder servers are going offline.
Such is the circle of life.

EA Play in GamePass is all the rage this week...
And we have a list!
All the news was provided by TrueAchievements thanks to Lee's laziness... We blame it on Lee going on holiday. Star Wars Episode 1 Racer is back and better than ever! CyberPunk 2077 has been delayed again. And Gears 5 is getting DLC for the Series X launch!
Move maps around in Cato, live your kung-fu fantasies in Cobra Kai and run through a cyberpunk inspired city in Ghostrunner. Also, freak yourself out in Five Nights at Freddy's. Oh, and Watch Dogs: Legion is here! Who's jumping in? We also have a bunch of other scary games for you to try, but they are too scary to even mention!
